Phantom T3610

At its full 1 Mpx resolution of 1280 x 800 the Phantom T3610 captures over 38,000 fps. This  38 Gpx/second throughput is maintained through its full range for a top frame rate of 875,000 fps at both 1280 x 32 (standard mode) and 640 x 64 (binned mode). Binned mode increases the vertical resolution of the camera’s top frame rates by combining the sensor pixels 2×2. Binned mode is included on both mono and color T3610 cameras, however the output will switch to mono when used on a color camera.

The frame rates provided by the T3610 are sought after for combustion, impact testing, spray dynamics, shock wave analysis and other applications that benefit from sub-microsecond exposure times. The T3610 custom BSI sensor delivers on all fronts, including the ability to shoot in environments with limited supplemental light.

The T3610 includes premium features to enable a variety of applications including:

  • EDR (Extreme Dynamic Range) provides flash mitigation for ballistic studies by dynamically adjusting exposure in saturated areas of the image.
  • Programmable I/O to interface with DAQ systems and a variety of measurement sensors, which can be recorded and viewed as metadata in Cine files.
  • Remote, standalone operation is achieved by using the on-camera controls, video monitor and CineMag.
